wii » and another thought

Being a mom is crazy, but you know that. Finding time to do anything is difficult, especially exercise. But then I discovered EA Sports Active Personal Fitness Trainer for the Wii (checkout my review). With a little help from my youngest daughter, I just completed another 30 Day Challenge.

This would be my second challenge, but before starting this challenge I took some measurements, to see if the challenge is making an impact. And you know what? It is! I lost a whole two inches around my hips and an inch around my thighs. Now those  might not be big numbers, but to be honest I didn’t expect any changes.

Beyond the numbers I’ve noticed other changes. I’ve been drinking more water and snacking less at night. I’ve also noticed a better posture. You know those moments when you look in the mirror and suck your stomach in. Well, I’ve noticed I don’t have to suck my stomach in as much as I use to. That’s a good thing.

Now I’m looking forward to the next  release this November, with a new six-week challenge, new routines and exercises for that wonderful midsection. I might be able to fit in those board shorts next summer. Now that’s something worth celebrating.
